Heart of a magnolia

Who knew the stamens of a magnolia look like little tadpoles ?
The wonderful world of macro showing the details of the heart of one of the magnolia flowers while they're losing their petals rapidly. Rain and thunderstorms are expected for tonight , so this may well be the last day for the tree's flowers. For Flower Friday with thanks to Anni/BikerBear for hosting !

Thanks very much for your kind comments, stars and even faves for yesterday's industrial staircase abstract !
